Shock Advertising Edit

Digg this TrendStumble this TrendShare this TrendEmailthis TrendEmbed This TrendShare This Trend



30 gratuitous billboards depicting abduction, torture and murder of kidnapping victims in Elisha Cuthbert’s latest movie, ‘Captivity’ have censors and concerned citizens in an uproar at the shocking content of these ads.

Sadist/misogynist cinephiles, take heed: you may have less than 24 hours to enjoy the series of 30 billboards erected around town to promote Elisha Cuthbert vehicle Captivity, depicting the "Abduction," "Confinement," "Torture," and "Termination" of low-budget horror movie kidnapping victims, as they're scheduled to be taken down by sometime tomorrow following complaints from concerned citizens who appreciate a little more subtlety in their exploitation flick advertising.
